Optical coherence tomography in multiple sclerosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Summary Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a new method that could aid analysis of neurodegeneration in multiple sclerosis (MS) by capturing thinning of the retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL). Meta-analyses of data for time domain OCT show RNFL thinning of 20·38 μm (95% CI 17·91–22·86, n=2063, p...
